2015 Topps Heritage Value Pack

I won't apologize for liking Heritage, I liked it when it first emerged back in the early 2000's and when we had a choice of Bowman and Topps. Plus there was Upper Deck vintage sets, which were also pretty impressive. But now we are limited to Heritage and at a push Archives.
The 2015 Topps Heritage Baseball base set uses the 1966 Topps Baseball design. The main part of the set has 425 veterans, rookies and managers plus 75 short prints, bringing the 'base set' to 500 cards.
There are a number of variations to the base set including Action Image Variations which are exclusive to hobby packs. There are Throwback Uniform Variations showing players in old uniforms. There are other limited variations such as Error and new Traded Player variations.
The inserts include: New Age Performers, Baseball Flashbacks, News Highlights and Then and Now, which show 1966 league leaders with the 2014 league leaders.
One of the nicer inserts is the 35 card 1966 Bazooka set.
